's and sport photography. On a digital camera with a DX-sensor, this is far less of a problem, as the range on these camera's will be 105-300mm. Should that not meet your demands, there are other possibilities?

If you do not feellike buying an extensive collection of lenses, or you wish to utilize the quality of the 70-200 completely, you can choose to increase the range using a teleconverter. Nikon has developed a 1.4x and a 2x teleconvertor specifically for this lens. Using these, the lens suddenly becomes a 91-280mmF4 lens(1.4x), or a 140-400mmF5.6 lens on a full-frame camera. Obviously, this range is even longer on a DX-camera.
Even though the maximum aperture decreases by using teleconverters, the drop in quality is surprisingly small. This certainly is worth it in case you do not wish to buy even longer lenses.

Being an EX DG lens, it is suitable for use on either FF (Full-Frame) or APS-C cropped sensor cameras when it effectively behaves like a 105-300mmf/2.8 (on Nikon APS-C), 112-320mmf/2.8 (on Canon APS-C) or 119-340mmf/2.8 on Sigma DSLR cameras. These make interesting options on the APS-C size sensor cameras and it can be assumed the camera has a completely different set of values when used with such cameras to those when used on full-frame. Interesting?
The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture provides great fun for shallow DOF (depth-of-field) shots where particularly at the 200mm end of the zoom, depth-of-field is excitingly shallow. Whilst the lens is referred to as 'macro' within it's descriptive title, the term is used somewhat loosely. True macro lenses provide genuine 1 to 1 life ...
Advantages: Good performance. Great fun. Good value. Disadvantages: Limited uses. Canon owners should consider Canon's version.
Time Manual) focusing either, which with HSM lenses 'is' available when shooting in One Shot AF mode. Whilst this might not at first seem to be much of an inconvenience, due to the extreme DOF (depth-of-field) available, one should consider that it 'does' in fact have a maximum aperture of f/2.8 and, even with such a short focal length, it is surprising just how 'little' DOF is available at maximum aperture, particularly when utilising the lens's excellent close focussing ability (15cm).
It should be considered that this lens is designed primarily for use on FF (full-frame) digital SLRs' or 35mm SLR cameras, when the full dramatic effect of the 180° diagonal angle of view can be enjoyed. This is not the case when used on smaller APS-C sensor DSLR cameras where much of the effect is lost, due to the smaller sensor utilising only ...
